Cullip family

My ancestor this week was Elizabeth Quy. As well as detailing research I had done to try and find Elizabeth’s ancestry, I also did some research on the descendants of Sarah Quy, who was most likely to have been Elizabeth’s sister. The Bassingbourn Parish Registers have the following marriage entry

The Census records helped to confirm that these marriage entries were for the same Henry Cullip. On the 1841 Census, Henry, age 30 at Bassingbourn, with children Richard, Mary and John. The baptism records show their baptism entries

There is the following burial for Susan

The 1851 Census shows Henry Cullip at Bassingbourn, in the household of William and Sarah Muncy. He was listed as William’s brother in law. This corresponds with the marriage of Sarah Cullip to William Muncy. On this census, Henry’s children were Richard Cullip, 15, and Charles Cullip 6.

The following are the baptisms of children to Henry and Ann

A couple of weeks ago, I did a post on my ancestor Joseph Scott. In this post, I stated that Joseph had married Emma Hodge. I have previously been in contact with a descendant of Joseph and Emma, who had given me details of Emma’s marriage, after Joseph’s death, to Henry Cullip, and how the family had later migrated to Australia. From the above information, I now had information that indicated that the descendants of Emma and Henry are also directly related to me, not just linked by marriage.
